The latest ORG International Security Monthly Briefing , "A hint of victory?", from Professor Paul Rogers, (Professor of Peace Studies at the University of Bradford), raises the all too often forgotten or ignored lessons of guerrilla warfare history. It ranges much wider than that, but also closes in on a particular detail of modern military asymmetry:
“Given the level of sophistication shown by planners in a number of paramilitary movements in recent years, it would be entirely wise to assume that such movements are no more than a decade behind the drone technologies available to western states in the planning of their actions”
